System and programme of veterinary and-sanitary inspection of meat, poultry and eggs in the armed forces of the Republic of Croatia

U radu je opisana nova koncepcija programa veterinarsko-sanitarnog nadzora hrane namijenjenih prehrani pripadnika Oružanih sna- ga Republike Hrvatske (OS RH), odnosno nešto drugačiji način provedbe kontrole i nadzora od strane Vojnih veterinarskih inspektora OS RH u svijetlu novog načina organizacije prehrane OS RH. Koncepcija veterinarsko-sanitarnog nadzora izmijenjena je sukladno odrednicama Dugoročnog plana razvoja OS RH 2006. – 2015. koji prehranu temelji na vanjskim uslugama prehrane u ugostiteljs- kim kapacitetima izvan sustava OS RH, a u vlasništvu civilnih, bilo državnih, bilo privatnih pravnih osoba. Trgovačko društvo „Pleter- usluge“ d.o.o. osnovano je od strane Vlade RH s isključivom namjenom prehrane pripadnika Ministarstva obrane i Oružanih snaga RH, dok samo u dijelu slobodnih kapaciteta i u tkz. „objektima otvorenog tipa“ može pružati ugostiteljske usluge i ostalim korisnicima. Do sredine 2005. godine, prehrana pripadnika OS RH osnivala se na vojnim restoranima u okviru samih oružanih snaga, a posao ugov- aranja, nabavke, djelomičnog uskladištenja namirnica te pripreme hrane, a manjim dijelom i proizvodnje pojedinih namirnica (farme svinja, teladi i ovaca) organizirano od strane MO i OS RH. Donošenjem Dugoročnog plana razvoja OS RH te uvođenjem u zakono- davstvo RH sustava sigurnosti hrane baziranog na HACCP sustavu i Oružane snage RH donijele su odgovarajuće vojne propise (Uputa GS OS RH) koji reguliraju postupanje s hranom te provedbu službenih kontrola Vojnih veterinarskih inspektora OS RH u nadzoru novih subjekata u poslovanju s hranom. Proizvođači hrane te proizvodni objekti su i dalje pod nadzorom Vojne veterinarske inspekcije OS RH koja izdaje pozitivnu ili negativnu „preporuku“ o udovoljavanju proizvođača ili proizvoda za sklapanje ugovora o isporuci. Službena kontrola mesa peradi i jaja unutar OS RH provodi se u objektima trgovačkog društva „Pleter-usluge“ d.o.o., kao subjekta u poslovanju s hranom (SPH), a provodi se putem audita. Tijekom audita Vojni veterinarski inspektori OS RH provode organoleptički i dokumentacijski pregled, provjeru učinkovitosti implementacije HACCP sustava, te ukoliko je potrebno uzimaju se službeni uzorci. Provedba audita, odnosno veterinarsko-sanitarni nadzor kod proizvođača Vojna veterinarska inspekcija OS RH u pravilu obavlja po prijavi na službeni natječaj Ministarstva obrane Republike Hrvatske (MORH), te ukoliko se utvrdi da za to postoji potreba. U području sigurnosti hrane NATO savez je 2009. godine izdao vojnu normu STANAG 2550 (Minimum Standards of Food Safety and Hygiene on Operations). Danas, NATO savez razvija novu vojnu normu koja je u fazi studija u području audita kod proizvođača/dobavljača hrane pod nazivom STANAG 2541 (Audit Principles and Risk Assessment of Food Processors and Suppliers Associated with Military Deployment). U budućnosti će ove NATO norme biti temelj procedure audita pri službenoj kontroli Vojnih veterinarskih inspektora NATO saveza sa proizvođačima/ dobavljačima hrane u vojnim misijama i operacijama.The paper describes the new concept of the system and programme of veterinary and sanitary inspection of meat, poultry and eggs in the Armed Forces of the Republic of Croatia (AF RC), i.e. the implementation of ocial inspection procedures in the facilities of food industry entities (FIE). The new concept of the AF RC members’ nutrition is dened by the Longterm Development Plan of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Croatia 2006 – 2015 and it is based on the services of catering rms owned by civil corporations. Pursuant to the amendments to the regulations on food hygiene of the Republic of Croatia introduced to comply with the regulations of the Euro- pean Community, the Logistics Department of the AF RC General Sta issued the Direction on the Implementation of Ocial Inspection Procedures in the Facilities of Food Industry Entities, with the purpose of harmonizing the amended regulations with the national regu- lations on ocial inspections conducted by Military Veterinary Inspectors of the AF RC. Ocial inspections of meat, poultry and eggs within the AF RC are conducted in the facilities of the company „Pleter-usluge“ ltd., a food industry entity. They are conducted as audits during which Military Veterinary Inspectors of the AF RC examine organoleptic properties and documents, inspect the HACCP system implementation eciency and perform ocial sampling if necessary. Military Veterinary Inspectors of the AF RC conduct audits or vet- erinary-sanitary inspections of food producers by applying for tenders launched by the Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Croatia (MDRC) and if it is found that an audit is needed. In 2009 NATO prescribed the military standard in the eld of food safety - STANAG 2550 (Minimum Standards of Food Safety and Hygiene on Operations). Today, NATO is developping a new militay standard in the eld of audits of food processors/suppliers called STANAG 2541 (Audit Principles and Risk Assessment of Food Processors and Suppliers As- sociated with Military Deployment), which is now still being studied. In the future these NATO standards will be the basis of the auditing procedure of NATO Military Veterinary Inspectors’ ocial inspections of food processors/suppliers in military missions and operations
